Abstract

 Men of letters and philosophers have remembered the old age as a painful era in the life. Complaints are lodged about physical and mental weakness and also about a kind of farewell to the juvenile pleasures. However, in spite of resemblance of the wording to express these complaints, a review of the texts of the Persian Literature on the one hand, and the discourse of Cicero, the Roman author and philosopher of the first century A.D on the other, opens a broadest horizon to us, which reveals the insight of the society towards the human life in common. Our men of letters have considered the proportion of behaviors to age, while always remembering the termination of the days of youth with envy, and giving themselves up to the certain demise. However, Cicero encourages the wise old age to overcome the consequences of weakness of human body and mind, and consoles the old age with the advice which are a sign of his sound judgment and optimism towards the life. A collation of these sayings about the old ages afflictions represents diverse interpretations of the man’s status in the creation given by the east and west.
